1 For I would not have you ignorant, brethren, that our fathers were all under the cloud, and all passed through the sea.
1 PORQUE no quiero, hermanos, que ignoréis que nuestros padres todos estuvieron bajo la nube, y todos pasaron la mar;
2 And all in Moses were baptized, in the cloud, and in the sea:
2 Y todos en Moisés fueron bautizados en la nube y en la mar;
3 And did all eat the same spiritual food,
3 Y todos comieron la misma vianda espiritual;
4 And all drank the same spiritual drink; (and they drank of the spiritual rock that followed them, and the rock was Christ.)
4 Y todos bebieron la misma bebida espiritual; porque bebían de la piedra espiritual que los seguía, y la piedra era Cristo:
5 But with most of them God was not well pleased: for they were overthrown in the desert.
5 Mas de muchos de ellos no se agradó Dios; por lo cual fueron postrados en el desierto.
6 Now these things were done in a figure of us, that we should not covet evil things as they also coveted.
6 Empero estas cosas fueron en figura de nosotros, para que no codiciemos cosas malas, como ellos codiciaron.
7 Neither become ye idolaters, as some of them, as it is written: The people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play.
7 Ni seáis honradores de ídolos, como algunos de ellos; según está escrito: Sentóse el pueblo á comer y á beber, y se levantaron á jugar.
8 Neither let us commit fornication, as some of them committed fornication, and there fell in one day three and twenty thousand.
8 Ni forniquemos, como algunos de ellos fornicaron, y cayeron en un día veinte y tres mil.
9 Neither let us tempt Christ: as some of them tempted, and perished by the serpents.
9 Ni tentemos á Cristo, como también algunos de ellos [le] tentaron, y perecieron por las serpientes.
10 Neither do you murmur: as some of them murmured, and were destroyed by the destroyer.
10 Ni murmuréis, como algunos de ellos murmuraron, y perecieron por el destructor.
11 Now all these things happened to them in figure: and they are written for our correction, upon whom the ends of the world are come.
11 Y estas cosas les acontecieron en figura; y son escritas para nuestra admonición, en quienes los fines de los siglos han parado.
12 Wherefore he that thinketh himself to stand, let him take heed lest he fall.
12 Así que, el que piensa estar [firme], mire no caiga.
13 Let no temptation take hold on you, but such as is human. And God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that which you are able: but will make also with temptation issue, that you may be able to bear it.
13 No os ha tomado tentación, sino humana: mas fiel es Dios, que no os dejará ser tentados más de lo que podéis [llevar]; antes dará también juntamente con la tentación la salida, para que podáis aguantar.
14 Wherefore, my dearly beloved, fly from the service of idols.
14 Por tanto, amados míos, huid de la idolatría.
15 I speak as to wise men: judge ye yourselves what I say.
15 Como á sabios hablo; juzgad vosotros lo que digo.
16 The chalice of benediction, which we bless, is it not the communion of the blood of Christ? And the bread, which we break, is it not the partaking of the body of the Lord?
16 La copa de bendición que bendecimos, ¿no es la comunión de la sangre de Cristo? El pan que partimos, ¿no es la comunión del cuerpo de Cristo?
17 For we, being many, are one bread, one body, all that partake of one bread.
17 Porque un pan, [es que] muchos somos un cuerpo; pues todos participamos de aquel un pan.
18 Behold Israel according to the flesh: are not they, that eat of the sacrifices, partakers of the altar?
18 Mirad á Israel según la carne: los que comen de los sacrificios ¿no son partícipes con el altar?
19 What then? Do I say, that what is offered in sacrifice to idols, is any thing? Or, that the idol is any thing?
19 ¿Qué pues digo? ¿Que el ídolo es algo? ¿ó que sea algo lo que es sacrificado á los ídolos?
20 But the things which the heathens sacrifice, they sacrifice to devils, and not to God. And I would not that you should be made partakers with devils.
20 Antes [digo] que lo que los Gentiles sacrifican, á los demonios [lo] sacrifican, y no á Dios: y no querría que vosotros fueseis partícipes con los demonios.
21 You cannot drink the chalice of the Lord, and the chalice of devils: you cannot be partakers of the table of the Lord, and of the table of devils.
21 No podéis beber la copa del Señor, y la copa de los demonios: no podéis ser partícipes de la mesa del Señor, y de la mesa de los demonios.
22 Do we provoke the Lord to jealousy? Are we stronger than he? All things are lawful for me, but all things are not expedient.
22 ¿O provocaremos á celo al Señor? ¿Somos más fuertes que él?
23 All things are lawful for me, but all things do not edify.
23 Todo me es lícito, mas no todo conviene: todo me es lícito, mas no todo edifica.
24 Let no man seek his own, but that which is another’s.
24 Ninguno busque su propio [bien], sino el del otro.
25 Whatsoever is sold in the shambles, eat; asking no question for conscience’ sake.
25 De todo lo que se vende en la carnicería, comed, sin preguntar nada por causa de la conciencia;
26 The earth is the Lord’s, and the fulness thereof.
26 Porque del Señor es la tierra y lo que la hinche.
27 If any of them that believe not, invite you, and you will be willing to go; eat of any thing that is set before you, asking no question for conscience’ sake.
27 Y si algún infiel os llama, y queréis ir, de todo lo que se os pone delante comed, sin preguntar nada por causa de la conciencia.
28 But if any man say: This has been sacrificed to idols, do not eat of it for his sake that told it, and for conscience’ sake.
28 Mas si alguien os dijere: Esto fué sacrificado á los ídolos: no [lo] comáis, por causa de aquel que lo declaró, y por causa de la conciencia: porque del Señor es la tierra y lo que la hinche.
29 Conscience, I say, not thy own, but the other’s. For why is my liberty judged by another man’s conscience?
29 La conciencia, digo, no tuya, sino del otro. Pues ¿por qué ha de ser juzgada mi libertad por otra conciencia?
30 If I partake with thanksgiving, why am I evil spoken of, for that for which I give thanks?
30 Y si yo con agradecimiento participo, ¿por qué he de ser blasfemado por lo que doy gracias?
31 Therefore, whether you eat or drink, or whatsoever else you do, do all to the glory of God.
31 Si pues coméis, ó bebéis, ó hacéis otra cosa, haced[lo] todo á gloria de Dios.
32 Be without offence to the Jews, and to the Gentiles, and to the church of God:
32 Sed sin ofensa á Judíos, y á Gentiles, y á la iglesia de Dios:
33 As I also in all things please all men, not seeking that which is profitable to myself, but to many, that may be saved.
33 Como también yo en todas las cosas complazco á todos, no procurando mi propio beneficio, sino el de muchos, para que sean salvos.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
Thus, because he terrified them greatly, relating the ancient examples, and threw them into an agony, saying, "Let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall; "though they had borne many temptations, and had exercised themselves many times therein; for "I was with you," saith he, "in weakness, and in fear, and in much trembling:" (1 Cor. ii.

For "the earth is the Lord's, and the fulness thereof." These things they who live a godly life, that is never to be repented of, both have done and always will do.
… and revived, that He might rule over the living and the dead." And again, writing to the Corinthians, he declares, "But we preach Christ Jesus crucified;" and adds, "The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not the communion of the blood of Christ?"
But there is hope, because Thou art faithful, who wilt not suffer us to be tempted above that we are able, but wilt with the temptation also make a way to escape, that we may be able to bear it. I would therefore confess what I know concerning myself; I will confess also what I know not concerning myself.

Hear ye not Paul saying, "that all these things are written for our admonition"? And thou, if thou hadst to take up a Gospel, wouldest not choose to do so with hands unwashed; but the things that are laid up within it, dost thou not think to be highly necessary?
